I'm the beautiful village of Keachi, located in
Il remarkably healthy place in DeSoto
Parish, Louisiana, on the Shreveport and Hous.
ton Railway, and also five miles from Gioster,
on the Texas and Pacific Railway and twenty
five miles south of Shreveport and eight miles
from the Texas State line the famous Keachi
College, now attracting SO much favorable
attention on account of its matchless plan Of
operations and its superior methods, is located.
1t is great enterprise unfettered by sect arian-
ism and doing work that will cause future
generations to rise up and call it blessed. 1t
has made Keachi the favorite resort of noble
youths of both sexes in search of higher educa-
ton according to our improved methods. We
have had during the past year greater num-
Der of boarding pupils at the College than any
other institution in Louisiana. We have seven
male members of much experience and very
distinguished ability in the faculty and fine
array of female talent besides. We graduated
twelve noble youths of both sexes from Texas,
Louisiana and Mississippi, June 10, 1887, and
have many talented undergraduates to whom
we point with great pride and satisfaction
The classic atmosphere at our College and the
refining influence in the faculty and among
the pupils, together with that nobility Of
character emanating from a consecrated facul-
ty and devoted classes OF the very best young
people of both sexes tend always to produce
the highest type of precious womanhood. We
are not surprised to see the fame of Keachi
=
undertaken great things. The celebrated Prof.
7. c. Strickland, of New York, honored as q
devOut Methodist, yet unsectarian in his work,
together with other specialists, is now con-
